Green Belt Camp
Service Civil International Österreich
Wien, An Ostair
Cur síos
The European Green Belt is a valuable ecological network along the former Iron curtain. The Green Belt forms the backbone of Pan-European ecological network and provides a significant contribution to European “Green Infrastructure”. European Green Belt is a space for encounters between people and cultures and opportunities for a joint sustainable approach to natural and cultural heritage. With this project in the Green Belt at the Austrian-Czech border, the Austrian League for Nature Conservation - Lower Austria and SCI Austria want to link international cooperation and nature conservation. You will take concrete action to maintain biodiversity in a part of the EGB zone along the border between Austria and Czechia and contribute to preservation of endangered species. We will work together for 5-6 hours a day. We will mow steep meadows and remove bushes from dry rocky grasslands that are threatened to be over grown by bushes and trees.

During the workcamp we will change two different accommodations. Both accommodations will be very basic. First week we will sleep in tents, whereas second week we will have simple shared group accommodation. In the first week of the camp we will stay in Hart-Aschendorf during which we will sleep in the tents. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary that you bring the tent with you as well as your own sleeping bag, sleeping mat and a pillow! During the second week we will stay at the campsite of Poysdorf (http://www.vinoversum.at/poysdorf/campingplatz/).
Oiliúint le linn na gníomhaíochta
Apart from contributing to protection of endangered species by physical work you will also learn about them as well as about other plants and animals in the area. We will reflect upon ecological problems and initiatives that one can take in order to support environmental protection and promote a sustainable green Europe. The beautiful region of Lower Austria offers a lot of possibilities for free-time activities and cultural enrichment. You can learn something about wine-production, we will visit the castle of Falkenstein, make a trip to Mikulov in the near Czech Republic.
